There are many reasons why breakfast is thought to be the most important day of the day, and at FIT Medical Weight Loss we echo this sentiment. Eating breakfast can provide many benefits to your mindset and dramatically aid your weight loss efforts.
Good for your health
Eating breakfast can dramatically improve your overall health. Various studies over the years have shown that regularly eating breakfast can help reduce health problems such as diabetes and coronary heart disease.

Boosts your energy
Eating a low carb high protein will absolutely give you the energy you need, so you feel less tired throughout the day. An unhealthy diet just won’t cut it leading to a mid-morning slump. Follow that up with an unhealthy lunch, and you will barely make it to mid-afternoon with a pick-me-up.
Makes you happier
No one wants to be around a grumpy, moody person in the morning. If you eat breakfast, you will keep those moods at bay and have a more positive outlook when you arrive into work. We can all do without hangry people so eating a regular breakfast will ensure there is one less in the world.
Improves your concentration
While breakfast is thought to be able to improve your short-term memory (a win in our books), it will also help your concentration levels. If your place of business loves early morning meetings which require you to be operating at peak levels, then eating a balanced diet prior is recommended.
Decrease your cravings
Because a healthy protein will help ensure you are less hungry as the day goes on you will find your cravings during mid-morning decrease. You won’t even give those sugary carb-laden foods a second glance at work and will ensure you keep to your calorie count.
Create healthy habits
Eating healthy meals at breakfast will create healthy habits throughout the rest of the day. And these healthy habits when cultivated over the long-term will help you lose weight and maintain a healthy weight goal.
